Castle
The Fort of Parkan (full name Ciğerdelen parkan meaning "liver-stabbing fort" in Turkish, shortened to Çekerden) was a fortified outpost built by the Ottoman Empire in 1546 on the northern banks of the Danube opposite the city of Esztergom. It lost its military role after the Great Turkish War and was soon demolished. The fort was located on the territory of present-day Štúrovo, Slovakia.
